Mighty Bear Games will give out free MightyNet Genesis Pass non-fungible tokens (NFTs) for its upcoming Mighty Action Heroes Web3 game.
The game is coming later this year, but Mighty Bear Games will release NFTs to its community first. Those NFTs will be free and they are available to 25,000 people who have crypto wallets and are on Mighty Bear’s “allowlist.” That list has been curated to include long-term holders of NFTs from at least two pioneer collections in the NFT gaming space.
Rather than find players who will acquire NFTs and then immediately try to sell them for a profit, Mighty Bear Games wants to reward those who hold onto the NFTs. All told, the company had 1,337 NFTs on the Ethereum chain in the first release. Simon Davis, CEO of Mighty Bear Games in Singapore, said in an earlier interview that the company wants to win over loyal community members and give utility to the NFTs.
Founded in 2016 (from the ashes of Nonstop Games) by a diverse group of industry veterans with experience at the likes of King, Ubisoft, Lucasarts, Disney and Gameloft, Mighty Bear Games has a proven track record of developing highly engaging games that appeal to universal audiences. The team has released five games in the past four years. Davis said he wanted to make an outstanding game first and take advantage of the benefits of NFTs with utility for gamers.
